This is too newfangled for me to understand. Magnetic strip protection I get. RFID, I do not. Who cares, right? It’s free and it seems helpful. Hah! 1SaleADay is offering two free RFID credit card protection sleeves when you like them on Facebook. After you’ve done that, post a comment on their wall BEFORE you return HERE to order your freebie.

I cannot tell you how much I LOVE these coupons. With such huge in-store and online discounts, it has made so many outfits unbelievably inexpensive.

So, to get this $10 discount on a $25 purchase again PLUS free shipping to store, enter the code SHOPBIG during checkout. Alternatively, you can print it and use it in-store. It’s valid from Friday, November 4th, through Monday, November 7th.

Remember, the benefit to shopping online is that you get the Shop At Home.com cash back bonus of 3%. There is also a Wild Cash back deal on Kids Pajama Sets from JCPenney that will overlap this coupon until 10am tomorrow morning. They’re on sale for $11.99 with a Wild Cash Back Reward of $1.80. The limit is one, but here’s a deal idea for you:

3 Kids Pajama Sets $11.99 Total: $35.97 Use: $10/$25 coupon + free ship to store (code: SHOPBIG) Pay: $25.97 Get $1.80 Wild Cash Back on one pair of pajamas Get some other amount in cash back from Shop At Home.com. I have no idea how they’ll calculate it. Final: $8.05 each. As I said, this does not include the 3% cash back bonus you’ll get.

I’ve also got my eye on these shirts for my son. He has a couple already and loves them. They’re $5.48 each when you buy 3 after the coupon and cash back. They come in a bunch of different colors. And if you’re like me and your kids still need a winter coat…Yep, I force my tasmanian devils to suffer with lighter fall coats a bit until I can get a good deal. Believe me, they’re too busy spinning around to notice cold air. As a matter of fact, they could actually provide heat to our entire block if I’d put them in giant hamster wheels. 😉

While these coat choices won’t get you to the $25 you’ll need to spend, they’re great items to purchase if you need them. Pair one for $19.99 with the Wild Cash back pajamas for a fabulous deal.

Hallmark on Facebook has another money saving offer for us from now through November 13th. We can save $5 off a $10 purchase in Hallmark stores. Make sure you scan your Gold Crown Reward card or join, so you can earn points and rewards you can use on future purchases. You’ll also receive exclusive members only offers each month.

I expect a couple of coupons to pop up that will work with these match-ups before Black Friday gets here – maybe Colgate and Nivea? I’ll repost these the week of Black Friday with updated coupons and let you know what, if anything, I’ve added. You’ll want to look it over yourself because there are quite a few items that would make nice deals with the Buy $30 Get $10 Gift Card promotion. I’ve chosen a couple that I think would be nice gifts. And really, if you start holding onto the gift cards as you get them now, you can get a whole lot of high value items for free during this promotion.

The match-ups are almost done, but you know I don’t trust these coupons to hang around until I finish. If you’re a Breathe Right fan, print this CVS store coupon to stack with a manufacturer coupon for a fabulous Black Friday deal that actually starts Thanksgiving Day, November 24th, and runs through Saturday, November 26th.

Check out the Rite Aid tab on Rite Aid’s Facebook page to print your store coupon for $5.00/1 Nature Made Fish Oil. Since this coupon can be stacked with manufacturer coupons, this will likely give us a freebie or two!

This has been an extremely helpful promotion these last few years. Every year, it seems I lose around half of my Christmas tree lights. In my infinite Charlie Brown-ness, they work when I check them, and go out after I’ve strung them on the tree. Of course, right? Haha! Coupons ALWAYS make unstringing them a bit less daunting though.

As in years past, we can take our broken OR old Christmas lights to Home Depot and get three coupons to save on some new energy efficient lights.

Not much out of the ordinary coming up next week – free toothpaste and razors. I need a few greeting cards, so the deal coming up at CVS is handy. I’ve also got some RR’s I need to spend at Walgreens, so the baking deals are a good way to do that, too! But then, you know me, I can always find a way to put a positive spin in each week. Free still amazes me after all these years! 🙂

What is the Crystal Ball? It’s a teeny look at some of the deals coming up next week. Every item under $1 for all three drugstores will be in the Freebies & Cheapies posts for each store this Saturday.

WELCOME!

I'm so glad you're here! Living and working in mid-Michigan, I have a lot of fun compiling the best deals for each store I visit, putting together breaking deal updates, and hunting for freebies. I also like to pass along all kinds of interesting tidbits, recipes, and simple DIY projects to make saving even more money AND living well easy for you.
